Hey friends-
Just returned from seeing a local Dr near me who follows DK closely as well as incorporating hormone support (very important to her) etc.
I have been begging my Dr for years to take a closer look at how the hormones play a more intrical role in chronic conditions, and now it seems I may be finally vindicated. lol.
Anyway, she recommended this product; Wilson's adrenal rebuilder, because unlike other adrenal products, it does not support them w/ the usual (rhidola, etc), instead it is designed to rebuild them.
Looks very promising to me. I am actually surprised because it takes a bit of doing for me to hear of something new these days. lol again. She said she has more success w/ this particular product than any other adrenal/thyroid product. This is exciting coming from a LLMD neurologist who follows DK and places a large emphasis on balancing the body's hormonal axis as first line of attack.
This product I was told is also for thyroid malfunction as the adrenals control it, which when rebalanced/rebuilt, the thyroid comes back in line.
Now this is all just what I have been told, and I have yet to try the product, but I just wanted to share w/ you all (cane, massman, and all the other hormone junkies)
I'll report back once I am on it w/ any benefit I find.
Best
Derek

It is actual concentrates of the actual glands we are trying to rebuild.
I believe this is the same Dr who names "Wilson's syndrome" so I am going to bet this stuff is not half bad.
On the hypothyroid article, I think the more important question is IF 90% of the population do in fact have some type of thyroid issue whether it be hypo or hashi is WHY is it happening?
And of course, how to treat it.

- Once the infections are treated, so much of this gets better. Along the way, support is vital but we may have to wait until the infections are adequately addressed to see our bodies start to work right again - and the re-entry curve can take some time.
It's easy to underestimate the effect of infection but it really is such a key here. Lyme and all the others that we deal with are called "stealth" infections for a reason, they are very sneaky. -

But I have no idea how that is done lol
Reversing immune response.
I just wonder why so many LLMD's are quick to put their patients on synthetic hormones.
I wonder what the rate of success is with it?
Like... remission(while on synthroid/cytomel) vs remission(without synthetics)

Keebler,
Great point. Dr B always says... when in doubt...
"It's Lyme, stupid."

I agree, treating the infections will result in some what of a re-balanced body, but some of the things need support along the way and some of the things may not fall back in line even when the infections are under control.
